KAMPALA, UGANDA | THE INDEPENDENT | Uganda Cranes Head Coach Paul Put has intensified the country"s bid to qualify for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) by naming four new players in the 27-man squad to prepare for the final two matches of the qualifiers.
Uganda will host South Africa at Namboole Stadium on November 15, and then face Congo in Brazzaville four days later in a last-ditch effort to secure a spot in the tournament, which promises to be a showcase of the finest African football talent.
Coach Put has vowed to leave no stone unturned in his quest to lead the Cranes to the 2025 AFCON, and the inclusion of the four new players is a testament to his commitment to exploring every possible avenue for success.
The four new players bring a fresh dynamic to the squad, boasting an impressive array of skills and experience that will undoubtedly bolster the team"s chances of achieving their goal.
As the stakes grow higher with each passing match, the Uganda Cranes will be counting on the new additions to bring an extra spark to their performances and help navigate the challenges that lie ahead in the qualifying process.
The clash against South Africa at Namboole Stadium promises to be an electrifying encounter, with the home crowd expected to play a crucial role in rallying the team towards a crucial victory.
However, the road to success will not be without its hurdles, as the Uganda Cranes will have to overcome a well-drilled South African side and then a stiff Congolese squad to reignite their qualifying hopes.
In the face of such daunting challenges, the leadership of Coach Put will be tested like never before, but the experienced tactician remains optimistic that his team has the depth, skill, and resolve to upset the odds and achieve their objective.
The 2025 AFCON qualifying campaign has been a rollercoaster ride for the Uganda Cranes, marked by moments of brilliance and disappointments in equal measure. However, with the inclusion of the four new players, Coach Put has sent a clear message that the team is not yet ready to throw in the towel.
As the country stands behind the team, eagerly waiting for the final two matches, one thing is certain - the next few weeks will be a defining period in the history of the Uganda Cranes, and Coach Put and his charges are determined to make it a memorable one.
